“Yes? I'm all ears." “Kindly let Lady Stewart know that she would be contributing positively to society if she accepts to foster the pregnant girl.” “That is impressive. I will do my best to convince her.” “Thank you. I am counting on you. If you think that I need to discuss it with her, never relent in letting me know." “You are welcome.” Before he ended the call, Lady Stewart was beside herself with happiness, and her eyes were moist with tears of joy. Then, she moved closer to him and gave him a prolonged kiss. Thanks to the tinted glass windows, which were helpful. Nevertheless, he reciprocated as he stroked her back and reassured her, “Everything will be fine my sweet pie.” She withdrew her lips and smiled broadly before she concurred, “I know. I am lucky to be your wife.” “I am the luckiest. Let’s leave at once before the media begin to broadcast lies.” “You are right, Hubby.” Subsequently, he turned without wasting more time and drove off. Then, his security turned too and followed suit, but it was late, the media had gotten a good story for the day. (The Group Managing Director of Stewart Group of Companies left angrily after queuing to get into the school.) (Sir Stewart was displeased with the idlers at the gate.) Nevertheless, the broadcast was pleasant to the couple because it gave them a boost. The media reported the story as though, he visited the school for an official matter, rather than queuing to see a student who fell pregnant. When he turned, he caught a glimpse of Dr. Regal Hero, his childhood friend who wasted his youth with complicated relationships and was badly in need of a family. He was unaware that the pregnant girl was his daughter. Afterward, he drove to his wife’s office and parked at the vestibule. Then, he gave her a passionate look and waited for her to pick up her purse, but she was reluctant. Then, Jason, who understood her need, pacified her, “I understand how you feel, my love. From my discussion with the Vice Chancellor, our loneliness will soon be a thing of the past.” “I got it, Hubby. By the way, when do you intend to see him?” “I will see him after I have discussed with Lady Stewart and gotten her opinion.” Lady Stewart laughed heartily and gave him a peck. “Try to convince her, too,” she teased. He laughed softly too and got out of the car, walked to the passenger’s side, and opened the door for her. Then she appreciated him, “Thank you. I love you, dear.” “I love you too. Have a pleasant day, dear.” “I wish you the same.” Now, she walked briskly to her office lobby and headed to the elevator. Meanwhile, Sir Stewart got into the back seat of his BMW 5 Series, the Ultimate Driving Machine, while his driver and Personal Assistant got into the driver’s and passenger’s seats respectively. Then the driver inquired, “Where are we heading to, Boss?” “We are going back to the office.” “It is all right, Boss.” While the quest to see the pregnant girl was on, and the transactions to foster her, Johnny could not believe that he would find himself in such deep humiliation. The girls he wished to have a one-off affair with, had turned out to be a source of worry to him. He ran his hand through his head and asked anxiously, 'Why is she taking so long at his office?' As Sir Stewart sat quietly in the back seat, he mulled over the discussion he had with the Vice Chancellor. Although, their initial plan was to adopt the baby and pay the mother handsomely. Now, the Vice Chancellor had come up with another plan, which was a better and more favorable arrangement for him and his wife. 'Fostering her and the baby will make it easier. We will have a foster daughter and a grandchild very soon. That would be great,' he beamed with a smile and looked out through the window and admired the beautiful city of Chidek. The city, where his family owned seventy-five percent of the properties and twenty-five percent were owned by the clients who bought from him. Then, he ran his left hand on his head and smiled at the beautiful future he hoped to share with his wife and son. ‘I have hope in you, Johnny. I know you will turn a new leaf someday,' he reassured himself. Soon, the driver halted at the vestibule of the Administrative Block of the company. “Thank you, Dominic," he appreciated the driver and got out of the car. “You are welcome, Boss,” Dominic, responded. “Joel, come with me," Sir Stewart requested, and headed to his office “It is noted, Sir," Joel replied and followed him. At the Mount City University After Sir Stewart drove off, the media houses, who were attracted by the queue, publicized his departure but were careful not to put him in a bad light. Meanwhile, the publicity made the visitors appear clueless and gave him the dignity that he deserved. (Sir Stewart would not waste his time in a queue just to see a pregnant student.) (Arrant nonsense.) (Lady Stewart Stewart would not tolerate that.) Sir Jason Stewart and his wife smiled heartily when they saw the media broadcast about them. At last, the other dignitaries, who were spotted at the scene were vilified, and they regretted their acts. Now, after the Vice Chancellor got off the phone with Sir Stewart, he was confident to tackle the unwanted visitors. Before then, he was cautious about deciding on the long queue because he would rather not offend them. After speaking with the most respectable man in the city, others were a walkover. Then, he called the Chief of the Security Guards, and instructed, “Gen. Braxton, ask your men to lock the gates until further notice. Ensure that the visitors, who were already on the premises, leave at once.” “I got it, Prof. Farrell,” General Braxton responded. Meanwhile, the embittered Chief of the Security Guards was not comfortable with the sudden presence of the visitors and had waited for an instruction from the Vice Chancellor. Without delay, he swung into action at once. Then he summoned the Head of the Security and instructed, “Steve.” “Yes, Gen. Braxton.” “Lock up the entrance gates at once. No more visitors for today.” “It is noted, Boss.” Now, his staff members carried out the instructions with haste. Meanwhile, the other security officers on the campus mounted blockades at strategic points, especially on the roads to the female hostel. Unaware that the pregnant girl was not in the hostel.
